Today I had to take kids on a school excursion...............it was raining when we left............another 12mls of rain today............things are wet now......a muddy drive...slipping here and there (appreciate your sealed roads).......nothing running to fill some of our dams yet but the ground is wet..............yippee...........now to grow..............waiting waiting...........
Anyway back to the subject I got to meet up with a old blog friend while I was there.........we spent hours together which was great since we had not caught up for 2.5yrs.......it was just like yesterday...........
Of course we had to check out the fabric shop.............it was great.........20% off all the quilting fabrics.....a few bits of French General.........and I got 40% off the French General layer cake.....woo hoo........should I tell you she had 2 more there...........email me for details if you want to get one.......the shop isn't online.....yet....
What a great day......4-5hrs hrs in a car with 6 x girls was fun...........loud music/singing, dance competitons (sitting in carseat belts), constant chatter.....I sure wasn't going to fall asleep driving........lol
Catch you later

Sounds like a perfect day! Glad I'm not trying to negotiate your slippery driveway at the moment!
A mums got to do what a mums got to do! and a bonus with shopping! sounds like a great find.
Sounds like you had fun day out......and the rain has really lifted your spirits. I was at cross country in Wellington in the mud and rain (well, sitting in the car).
sounds like such a fun day which will do you good and yipee for rain,keep coming so we get these dams full.xx
Sounds like a great day...nice fabrics too!
Does sound like a great day out and rain, that has to be good. Hope there is more to follow. Hugs
That brings back great memories of driving kids on school excursions - the advantage of driving an 8 seater vehicle. Sounds like a great added bonus of shopping and meeting up with your friend.
You are a good mom! I actually do miss those days of transporting a car load of noisy kids here and there. (never thought I would say that!)
Sounds like a great day away. Sew nice to catch up with old friends and the fabric purchase is a bonus..
Pleased you are getting run, hope you get enough to fill dams and not just make your roads muddy.
What a day !!!

Nothing like a bit of car dancing! Yay for the rain, we got 3ml in one brief downpour, but I guess every bit counts, there are still puddles! Glad you had a good day :)
Glad you had a fun day and got some great bargains as well!
So good to hear you are getting rain - hope the dams begin to fill, have had a day of rain here - I can feel the weeds growing in the garden from here...dog and DSH just returned from walking...now can smell wet sheep!!! Your day out sounded like a good tonic!!!
